Your Oakdale Contractor for Full-Scope Work

Powerbuilt Construction is a licensed general contractor serving Oakdale homeowners who need a basement finished, a kitchen remodeled, or an addition built without juggling separate subs. MN License #BC533891 is on file and verifiable through the state. Bob Powers runs the job directly, so the person you talk to when you call (763) 331-2247 is the person on-site.

Oakdale sits at the I-694 and I-94 interchange in Washington County, and the housing stock runs from 1960s and 1970s split-levels near the older core to newer construction toward the eastern edge of town. The split-levels in particular tend to have lower levels that were never fully finished, and any basement remodel there needs a code-compliant egress window before it counts as livable space. Powerbuilt has permitted that exact work in Washington County enough times to know what the inspection is going to ask for.

Why It Matters

Licensed vs. Unlicensed Work in Oakdale

The Minnesota State Building Code requires permits on structural, electrical, and mechanical work, and Oakdale enforces that through its own building department. A basement finish in particular requires a permitted, code-compliant egress window if any room is going to be used as a bedroom. Powerbuilt operates under MN General Contractor License #BC533891 and pulls that permit on every qualifying job in Oakdale before work starts.

What Oakdale Homeowners Actually Hire Us For

Basement finishes and kitchen remodels are the two projects that show up most often on our Oakdale job sites.

Basement finishing is the single most common project we take on in Oakdale, largely because of how many split-level homes here were built with the lower level framed but never completed. We handle framing, insulation, code-compliant egress, and finish work as one job, not a series of separate trade calls. Kitchen remodels are the other steady category, particularly in homes from the 1960s and 1970s that have never had a real update.
